A website full of links about many famous and great Canadians that has been put together by another CBE school that did a similar project.

A good place to go to find out if someone famous is Canadian. This website has small amounts of information but it is a starting point.

A link to a wikipedia page about famous Canadians. Again, I would use this is a starting point. From here you can use some of the resources for each person to help you further your research.

Online Reference Centre – Links to large databases full of information. You will need to figure out which databases you should use that will help you with your research.

Student Research Centre – This will help you find articles, photos, maps, magazines, and other media about certain topics.

The Canadian Encyclopedia – It is exactly that, The Canadian Encyclopedia.

Canada online E-Library – Similar idea to the Student Research Centre

Grolier Online Passport – This will help you find sites with information about your person.

• Google Italian City ­States in general
• Google your city­ state and the word Renaissance, NOT the specific thing you’re researching. So, for example, Google “Milan Renaissance” instead of “Milan government Renaissance.” The second search can be useful, but chances are you’ll get more results by searching the first way. You will need to read the resulting sites for information, and the benefit of this way of searching is that you might find information that you weren’t immediately looking for but that’s useful anyway.
• In Google, you don’t need to include words like “in the” or “and.” Google excludes those from searches anyway.
• You may also find some useful information by searching “Italian Renaissance.”
